Management Commentary
“We delivered solid financial performance in the third quarter, demonstrating continued momentum from our transformation initiatives,” said Felix Lin, President and Chief Executive Officer of HF Foods. “Our results reflect strong operational discipline and effective implementation of our strategic priorities, even amid ongoing macro challenges. We remain confident in our long-term strategic plan, including evaluating attractive M&A opportunities to expand our geographical footprint. Through our market leadership in the Asian specialty distribution landscape and investments in infrastructure and technology, we believe HF Foods is positioned to drive sustained growth and create long-term value for our shareholders.”
Third Quarter 2025 Results
Net revenue was $307.0 million for the third quarter of 2025 compared to $298.4 million in the prior year period, an increase of $8.6 million, or 2.9%. The increase was primarily attributable to volume increases and improved pricing in Meat & Poultry and Seafood.
Gross profit was $50.4 million, a slight increase compared to $50.2 million in the prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in volume and improved pricing during the quarter. Gross profit margin remained relatively consistent at 16.4% compared to 16.8% in the same period in 2024 due to an increased proportion of sales from lower margin products, particularly, Seafood.
Distribution, selling and administrative expenses decreased by $0.4 million, or 0.7%, for the three months ended September 30, 2025. Distribution, selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenue decreased from 16.6% in the prior year to 16.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2025, primarily due to increased net revenue and lower personnel, professional and insurance costs, partially offset by increased rental, occupancy and other expenses.
Net loss decreased 77.2% to $0.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to net loss of $3.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The improvement was primarily driven by an increase in income from operations of $0.6 million and the increase in fair value of interest rate swap contracts of $3.2 million compared to the prior year period.
Adjusted EBITDA increased 41.5% to $11.7 million compared to $8.3 million in the prior year, which was due to various items noted in the Adjusted EBITDA table included in Appendix A of this earnings release.
Cash Flow and Liquidity
Cash provided by operating activities was $4.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to cash provided by operating activities of $4.2 million in the prior year period. Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $0.3 million primarily due to an increase in non-cash expense add-backs offset by the timing of working capital outlays mainly for inventory purchases to counter potential tariff increases. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had cash of $12.3 million, checks issued not presented for payment of $2.1 million and access to approximately $49.8 million in additional funds through the $125.0 million line of credit, subject to a borrowing base calculation. The Company has funded working capital and other capital requirements primarily by cash flow from operations and bank loans. Cash is required to pay purchase costs for inventory, salaries, fuel and trucking expenses, selling expenses, rental expenses, income taxes, other operating expenses and to service debts.

Appendix A
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 and 2024
(Unaudited)
Discussion of our financial results includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to HF Foods Group Inc. and non-GAAP EPS (“earnings per share”), that we believe provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial performance with other companies in the same industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. The definitions of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to HF Foods Group Inc. and non-GAAP EPS may not be the same as similarly titled measures used by other companies in the industry. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to HF Foods Group Inc. and non-GAAP EPS are not defined under GAAP and are subject to important limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our financial results as reported under GAAP.
We use non-GAAP financial measures to supplement our GAAP financial results. Management uses EBITDA, defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, interest income, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization to measure operating performance. In addition, management uses Adjusted EBITDA, defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, interest income, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization, further adjusted to exclude certain unusual, non-cash, or non-recurring expenses. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is less susceptible to variances in actual performance resulting from non-recurring expenses, and other non-cash charges, provides useful information for our investors and is more reflective of other factors that affect our operating performance.
We believe non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to HF Foods Group Inc. and non-GAAP EPS are useful measures of operating performance because these measures exclude certain items not reflective of our core operating performance. Non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to HF Foods Group Inc. is defined as net income (loss) attributable to HF Foods Group Inc. adjusted for amortization of intangibles, change in fair value of interest rate swaps, stock based compensation, transaction related costs, transformational project costs and certain unusual, non-cash, or non-recurring expenses. We believe that non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to HF Foods Group Inc. and non-GAAP EPS facilitates period-over-period comparisons and provides additional clarity for investors to better evaluate our operating results. We present EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP net income (loss) attributable to HF Foods Group Inc. and non-GAAP EPS in order to provide supplemental information that we consider relevant for the readers of our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in its reports filed with the SEC, including its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, and such information is not meant to replace or supersede U.S. GAAP measures. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the schedules attached to this press release.
